Since BE mentioned the wasabi snackies, I was craving Japanese. Spicy tuna roll with LoTs of wasabi is today's choice. It's a good one!

I don't exactly have a lunch. I spread out small amounts of food across a day. It's like one ongoing meal (but I end up feeling more comfortable, never overfull but never overhungry - and there are fewer total calories.)

This week, it's...

9AM - fat-free greek yogurt, 10 blackberries, 1/4 cup lowfat granola
11:30 AM - low-cal whole grain bread, 3 oz salmon, 1 oz lowfat goat cheese, basil
2:00 PM - 1/2 cup fat free cottage cheese with tomatoes and cilantro, 3 small carrots and teaspoon of peanut butter
4:00 PM - cup of white tea, 1 madeleine
5:30 PM - 12 almonds, 10 grapes, 5 unsweetened ginger chips
7ish - 2 servings of vegetables (I'm hoping tonight will be butternut squash "fries" (http://www.hungry-girl.com/chew/chewdetails.php?isid=812)), 1 serving of protein

Comes out to be about 1300/day (I lean toward 1400 if I'm swimming that day.)

I had a "sun dried tomato turkey" sandwich with swiss, mayo and lettuce on sourdough, toasted, with some bread and butter pickles on the side.

I've always thought that was an odd name for pickles. I don't really care for the dill ones much.

Betty
08-30-2011, 03:10 PM
so I immediately thought - why are they called bread and butter pickles? And here's the semi-interesting answer:

Legend has it that bread-and-butter pickles got their name during the Great Depression. The sweet, crunchy cukes were said to be a staple because they were cheap, shelf stable and could become a meal when sandwiched between bread and butter
